Product details

16.384 MHz MEMS oscillator with industrial temperature range

The DSC1101CL2-016.3840 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator from Microchip's DSC1101 series, delivering a 16.384 MHz CMOS output with ±25 ppm frequency stability across -40°C to 105°C. Operating from a 2.25V to 3.6V supply, it draws 35 mA max during operation and drops to 95 µA in standby (power-down) mode — the standby function is a dedicated pin, not a software toggle.

MEMS resonator vs quartz — what changes on the BOM

The MEMS base resonator replaces the quartz crystal and oscillator IC in a single package — no external load capacitors or feedback resistor needed, which saves two passives per BOM position and shrinks the layout to a 3.20mm x 2.50mm 6-SMD footprint.

No official successor or second-source is listed; the DSC1101 series is the current production family.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC1101CL2-016.3840 a direct replacement for a standard quartz oscillator?

Yes, it is a drop-in functional replacement for a 16.384 MHz quartz XO with CMOS output, provided the supply voltage (2.25V–3.6V) and the 6-SMD footprint match. The MEMS base resonator eliminates the need for external load capacitors, so the BOM count drops by two passives per oscillator.

What is the standby power consumption of the DSC1101CL2-016.3840?

In standby (power-down) mode, the supply current is 95 µA max. The standby function is controlled via a dedicated pin — when asserted, the output is disabled and the internal oscillator stops, dropping current from the 35 mA operating max.
